Houses built in 1930’s

proper brummie kid
My Grandad Colin Frederick Price was a builder in 1930’s also my dad, of tge same name. Under the name of C.F.Price and Son. They built many houses in the Stechford area also Castle Bromwich. After my father passed away I found some interesting pictures / documents I’d like to share with you. I’ve always been led to believe that the picture of the shops in Stechford (circa 1930’s) was one of their builds. Also somewhere I’ve this memory of seeing cast iron drain covers with the name of the builders cast into them - C.F.Price and Son9D4F417B-8DA9-4359-BE6F-851EC2F48010.jpeg. Has anyone out there got such a drain cover? I’d love to know.
